http://mywiki.wooledge.org/XyProblem http://mywiki.wooledge.org/IpAddress I bet one or both of those will help, in the long run. Note that the gateway address given by DHCP is available in a variable that dhclient-enter-hooks scripts can use. You probably want to get it that way instead of running "ip route" or "route" or "netstat -r" or any other command.
